I was given a set of test tubes, a pipette and a bottle of reagent tablets. It was 5 drops of pee + 10 drops of water... add a tablet and wait for the violent fizzing to stop, wait a further 10 seconds, shake gently and match the muddy mixture against a colour chart.
OK, this is getting too much like a Monty Python sketch
I had a very similar blue syringe holder, but mine was part of a blue plastic box with clips for my vials of U40 regular and isophane. I remember boiling my syringe once a week, wrapped (disassembled) in a cotton hanky !

I do remember boiling the syringe, the surgical spirit which kept the syringe clean afterwards was a nightmare to dispell.... I'm sure I never use to get rid of it all and would inject it together with the insulin :crazy:
